Was wondering whether the TaLK program will still accept applications or if that is all filled up as well? Thanks!

Just ask your recruiter. I was surprised to hear that Epik was full. Usually they still need people up to the last minute.

Just a note... the recruiters regularly use the words, "Full" year after year in an attempt to get you to take a crappy hagwon job now. It just means the date for recruiting new teachers for the next semester has passed. Wait around a month or three, and jobs will magically open up again. Your timing is just off.

We know this because within weeks after recruiters start telling everyone the jobs are full, we see articles in local newspapers talking about how the gov't fell short of their recruiting goal again.

I think the application period for TaLK has been closed for awhile. I mean, orientation starts in like 3 weeks.

Ask this lady, Angela Hur, here if there are any last-minute openings: [email protected]

ask another recruiter...........perhaps the recruiter you used just filled their allocation spots

I think EPIK is still looking for people to fill the Seoul positions. But you need more than a BA. Check the site and send some emails out.
